Well, what a year it's been in 2010. Eclipse and all the surrounding madness was the highlight of the Twilight year and it was worth the wait. We even got a Rob & Kristen commentary on the DVD (if you haven't listened yet, go do it now).

However our favourite stars were also busy with lots of other movies.... Rob brought us 'Tyler' in 'Remember Me', showing the world that there was more to him than Edward Cullen.

Kristen showed her epic acting chops in Welcome to the Rileys & The Runaways while Taylor starred with a host of other celebs in Valentine's Day. The rest of the cast were busy too...it seems the Twilight cast can do no wrong, as they continue to pop up in bit parts / big parts in movies, tv shows and even music videos!

8. Cam Gigandet Says 'Twilight' And 'Priest' Are Very Different - Video may not work!

In case it won't play for you, heres a brief transcript from Team-Twilight.

Gigandet said that, although there are vampires involved in the movie, fans expecting the romantic “Twilight”-style vamps will be in for a shock.
“It’s very, very different from ‘Twilight,’ ” he said. “The similarities kind of end with what they’re called, which is vampires.”
Gigandet said the world of “Priest,” directed by Scott Charles Stewart, is also entirely different. “The world Scott created is kind of unlike any other,” he said. “Sometimes it was hard to visualize what he had in his mind, but I’ve seen clips, and its unbelievable. … Just to work with all of these people, they’re such an amazing cast. I didn’t have any doubts [about taking on another vampire-related role].”
Gigandet’s co-star, “Star Trek” star Karl Urban, said he’s never seen a movie like this. “This is a post-apocalyptic vampire western,” he said. “The emphasis isn’t heavily on the fact — it’s not like a ‘vampire film’; there’s so much more to it.”
As far as what “Twilight” fans can expect to see, and fans of the original comic book, Gigandet and his co-stars said there is something for everyone in the film, because it is emotional and character-driven.
“[There are] so many different levels, and so many people are doing things that sacrifice for all sorts of love,” Gigandet said. “It’s not just one set love story. There are so many different levels going on.”

Kellan Lutz, Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser, and Nikki Reed, all took some took time out of their busy schedule on Dec. 16, to visit sick children in Our Lady of the Lake Children’s Hospital in Baton Rouge.

For the first time ever, the name Bella cracked the Top 20 for the names that parents gave to their newborn girls born this year in Arizona.

A year earlier, it managed to rank just 77th on the list.

But the popularity of the novels, and the movies that have followed — and of heroine Bella Swan — apparently does not translate across the gender barrier when parents are choosing names for their sons.

The popularity list provides no indication of who is on “Team Jacob’’ and who is on "Team Edward", as viewers [of the film] have divided their loyalties between the werewolf and the vampire.

It’s true that Jacob is the most popular name for boys. But that’s not new: It also placed there last year — and a decade earlier.

And Edward? Still not popular. It didn’t even crack the Top 100."
